Reduce Electrical Injuries with Proxxi Wearable Voltage Sensor
Apr 23, 2019
Proxxi is a wearable voltage sensor that detects energized equipment and notifies the user of danger.
By analyzing a users proximity to an energized device, Proxxi notifies the user via multi-sensory alerts when the warning zone surrounding the device has been crossed and again when the limits of approach have been breached.
This data is captured by the mobile app and made available to the rest of the organization in their dashboard.
Protect every worker facing electrical risk in every situation. Proxxi is a single solution that works in any voltage environment. With the Proxxi Mobile App, you can move from low voltage settings to high voltage settings in seconds.
Proxxi is also a great solution for low voltage and unqualified workers. This includes manufacturing, mining, construction, and first responders. Tailor the settings to the voltage and distance needed for each use case.
Safety & Operational Excellence for Organizations
Proxxi looks like PPE on the surface but it's so much more. Proxxi stores every warning and communicates them back to your dashboard. This provides real-time and historical access to every interaction with energized equipment.
See insights on compliance and warnings, organized by worker, team, location, and date. Ask questions and gain insights to improve the safety and operational performance of your entire organization.

Powerline Contact Continues to be Unforgiving – Powerline Safety Week Starts May 13 with Ontario-wide Education Campaign
The invisible impact of powerlines should never be underestimated. In the past decade alone, 19 people in Ontario have lost their lives from overhead powerline contact. May 13 to 19 is Powerline Safety Week, which is meant to inform people across the province to stay vigilant of powerlines when doing work at home or on the job.
"Our work in raising awareness of powerline safety won't be finished until there are zero injuries or lives lost from contact," says Dr. Joel Moody, Chief Public Safety Officer, Electrical Safety Authority (ESA). "All it takes is a misstep or careless error to change the life of you, your colleagues or family."

Canada’s wind energy industry further expanded its installed capacity in 2018, while solidifying its status as the lowest-cost source of new electricity generation. Newly commissioned projects brought total national wind energy capacity to close to 13,000 megawatts (MW). Meanwhile, competitive auction results in Saskatchewan and Alberta confirmed the wind industry’s ability to continue to deliver record-low prices.
The six wind energy projects that were powered up in 2018 added 566 MW of installed capacity — a continuation of steady growth that contributed to an average annual growth rate of 20% per year since 2008.

Researchers Develop New Flexible Solar Cells
A joint research team has developed a new type of highly flexible and stable solar cell that could be used in wearable electronics.
The power supply is vital to the safety of wearable electronics. Perovskite solar cell (PSC) has been widely used to manufacture flexible batteries because it is highly efficient, cheap, and easy to use. Perovskite is a material with the same type of crystal structure as calcium titanium oxide.
The flexible substrate is the key factor to determine the performance of PSCs.
